A Ground Invasion Would Be A Catastrophe I've been watching the recent war unraveling and have my own predictions about what will happen like a US ground invasion. Though I'm not 100% positive such a scenario would play out, I'm pretty confident some form of it or another will happen very soon enough. I just don't see how the US can easily walk away from something they initiated with Israel unless they want their ally to be eradicated from the Middle East by Iran.  And I don't believe any ceasefire will occur ever again. After Iran was deceived not once but twice during peace negotiations, were they attacked almost immediately thereafter. Such trust has been eroded to the point of no return. So anyone who keeps peddling this hopeful idea of a peace deal is just engaging in wishful thinking, delusion and not reality.  But I want to discuss why a ground invasion in Iran would absolutely decimate the US military, it's supply lines and logistics capabili...

     Some thoughts have come to me about why there are so many premature and random deaths that happen everyday to others in this world. It's safe to say that the elderly man who dies of natural causes clearly fulfilled his duties in life at a ripe old age and is now his time to depart. But what about those multitudes of young individuals who die without the appearance of fulfilling anything except for meeting an unfortunate demise? I was thinking about how young children and babies sometimes die prematurely for a plethora of reasons, and also those miscarriages and still births, perhaps this goes for any death that did not occur from natural causes. Suffice to say, I have a possible explanation for why this happens. So then I thought about destiny and free will. I always advocated more for destiny and less for free will. But don't be mistaken, I also believe there's some leeway for free will too which can impact the person's life course. Nevertheless, each individual w...

Muslims will try very hard to argue for any immoral cases in the Bible to make it look equally as unappealing as their Qur’an so it doesn’t fall to an inferior status. Much like a dysfunctional relationship where you’re the one who’s had enough and wants to let the other go but refuses to let go of you thinking it will still work out. That is the Qur’an to the Bible. The Qur’an wants to share the same status and appreciation as the Bible, but is still unable to rival it to that point. Unfortunately, this is yet another one of those cases where the Qur’an will fall very short of making the Bible look equally unappealing insofar that the Qur’an will look much worse in comparison. It’s the infamous claim about Rebekah’s age of marriage to Isaac which muslims will say was 3. How inaccurate and unsupported by the scriptural evidence this statement is! Here’s why… the Bible does not explicitly say the age of Rebekah when Isaac married her. I will steelman this for the muslims. Muslim arg...

     There is no explicit Biblical foundation for the Noahide laws. You will never find God saying to Noah in Genesis anywhere, "here are my 7 Noahide commandments to the gentiles." No such verse exists. It's a much later invention by rabbis in the rabbinic era to give gentiles a sense of moral code to live by, much like the golden rule but only with a few more 'golden rules' so to speak.  There are two commandments to Noah in Genesis. One is Genesis 9:4; 'don't eat the flesh of a still living animal.' This is considered a Noahide commandment. The other can be interpreted as a Noahide commandment if you do a lot of twisting and turning of the scripture to make it apply to the concept of murder; this is Genesis 9:5-6. Even so, it's still obscure inasmuch that the "shedding of man's blood" could be justified in war and self defense as two examples.  Even the Torah agrees that if you killed a thief before sunrise there is no bloodguilt u...

      I’ve been doing my own personal research on NDE experiences for quite a while now. And although I never actually had one myself I feel compelled from my inner spirit at this moment to comment on the God that most NDE survivors have an encounter with. I also want to most importantly note that this is my own analysis and personal opinion of the God that these survivors describe in their own NDE experience articles. I will break up my post into two parts; the analysis and then my opinion. Analysis This God is described in summary by many of these survivors as unconditionally loving beyond all human perception insofar that he’s basically unfathomable for any human being. Even so, I will still try to form my own opinion about this God in the next part.  I find it interesting that this God is described as being unconcerned with religion as a whole and takes no side whatsoever with what many people might believe is the true religion.  He is also said to...

So, I got into an argument with a serious evolutionist who believed that the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve in giraffes and humans is unnecessarily long and is poorly designed and so no creator would have designed it in such a way. And I just wanted to say that a lot of these false notions about the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve being evidence for poor design and therefore evidence for evolution, are the result of a lack of actual understanding of how the SLN and RLN function and its intended purpose in humans and giraffes which doesn't show evolution being a factor whatsoever in reality. The RLN doesn't just innervate the Larynx and go in a weird direction to there from the vessels of the heart. It also innervates the Esophagus and Trachea of the giraffe and so to reach its Larynx from all of these extensions at the same time, the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve needs to be, indeed, very long in the giraffe to begin with [1].  And it is indeed a necessity for its extra length in huma...

I love how science likes to glorify the ability of animals and intentionally misleads people into thinking that certain animals such as monkeys can do things like count and do math exactly the way humans do it. This is yet another one of science’s fantasies that wishes it were true and even goes as far as saying it in the titles of some articles related to that specific topic. I’m about to put this false claim to rest for good though as I believe this needs to be addressed. Of course, humans created arithmetic and numbers to keep track of things and to measure things like space and time but these things come from our own human brains and perception of the natural world. Monkeys, obviously, did not create numbers nor any other animals for that matter. When scientists conduct these experimental tests for the mathematical capabilities of these certain animals they are teaching them based on our already perceived understanding of numbers and arithmetic. And a lot of the time, the scien...
